Well, these are some albums that I actually like but they get some negative reactions and are disliked by many.

So, pick your poison LOL, laugh at my tastes, explain your choice, knock yourselves out.

Quite a few of these I enjoy and don't get the hate for.

Heritage is one of my favorite Opeth albums, so picking that.

I also really like A Momentary Lapse of Reason, Hear in the Now Frontier, and Calling All Stations is the only Genesis album that I get a decent ammount of enjoyment out of.

I don't think Falling into Infinity counts as a "worst album", but I actually went with Testament's The Ritual and the reason is simply the opening of "Electric Crown".

^ It counts for some people, it's considered their weakest effort of DT by many; I was surprised.  That's why it ended up in the list. That's all.

How can anyone vote for Technical Ecstacy Unhappy ?

I voted for Uriah Heep - Equator. A great band, but this one (which I have) is truly rubbish!

so you chose the one you don't like? you're supposed to choose the one you like, if any. If not, there's the last option. LOL

Torn between The Ritual and Falling Into Infinity. I'll vote for FII because I love Lines in the Sand's intro so much. Both however only have 3-4 songs that I would still listen today.

I know I´m in the minority here, but I do enjoy "Calling All Stations" quite a bit, although I wouldn´t call it a masterpiece or anything like that. Just a good solid release.

I think it's an okay album, too. I think "We Can't Dance" is a pretty good album as well.

A few of those are pretty solid, and Heritage rules, so this is an easy poll

I like Chameleon and Heritage about equally, but I went with the former because most people consider it easily their worst album, while I actually like a lot more than at least 2 or 3 of their other albums, if not more than that. If anything, I'd put it towards the middle of their discography.

I´ve actually been listening to that one quite a bit lately and there are definitely some great tracks on that album, I agree.
